@YOUCANIC bi-directional OBD scanner used on 2004 Ford F250 6.0 Powerstroke
I rented YOUCANIC wired unit to fix my MB GL320 CDi, so I recorded this video to show what it can do on my truck as well. Rental service for $85 for 5 days is a no-brainer for a universal unit with these capabilities. As a result of my very positive experience, I will be buying their wireless Bluetooth version of the device. There are no yearly subscription fees besides the initial purchase price of the device. I am not affiliated with this company nor was I compensated for this video. I am simply a very satisfied user.

This is my personal experience renting @YOUCANIC wired version of their bi-directional OBD scanner for $85 for 5 days when my iCarsoft MB 2.0 started cutting in and out. I am not affiliated with YOUCANIC nor compensated for this post in any way. I had a very positive experience using it and will be buying their wireless unit as a result. There are no yearly subscriptions unlike with others! Thi...

Mercedes GL (X164), ML (W164) Webasto sunroof twisting while opening
มุมมอง 12K4 ปีที่แล้ว
If your sunroof is operational, but one side is getting caught and twisting the sunroof. Sunroof assembly is shown. Very poor quality from Webasto. Metal brackets are molded over with plastic for sliding surfaces contact. Different rate of heat expansion and cooling is causing plastic to crack and brake off at which point metal on metal contact gets brackets stuck and sunroof jamming on one or ...

Dangggg that looks good so you used the mequires 67 to restore then what did you use for polish??
Önereceğiniz yer varmı
This is Excellent! Engineers don't even measure up!
sweet idea🍻can you send me links to the parts you used for this thanks
Can it disable the eco mode?
This will only help with oil mist... If the engine was caked up by this you need to take apart and clean the whole engine which sock
Cekaj,stani...uljne pare sad idu kroz filter zraka? Ne,ne,ne,ne....
I have replaced this is still sucks in oil. Strange thing is the old one like on the left seem to be better and suck in less oil. I do need a catch can.
Hi can please guide me where i connect the sensor. Thanks
not much help you dident show how to replace the unit
You’re pretty awesome. I don’t want a 7 seat gle as I can’t stand the shape. Nor the glb, it looks silly. Gos is too much. I will get gl class 2012/13. By summer. I have to budget for the car & say have at 2k aside for any issues &, keep topping up that maintenance fund. I certainly wouldn’t be able to do any of this myself. It’s too much for me. I hope my mechanic listens to your advice.
do you have a parts number list and where to order them?
❤❤❤
Recently mine om642 smoke white steam mixed with ash when push throttle harder. coolant drops by 100 ml so far. Any ideas😮
For e280 cdi om642920?
I did this 3 years ago, and it helped. Too bad the rest of the truck is also shit. EZS, ISM, TCM, and ECM all went to shit... FBS3 system makes everything a nightmare to replace, even with good SW/HW. Mercedes is dead to me...
Always nice to have somebody doing ALL the hard work and then telling us ALL the secrets. THANKS
Thank you so much for the suggestions! One comment is that, there is something to look out for when plumbing the PCV before the air filter on the passenger side intake. when the engine is off, there is nothing preventing the moisture and other things getting into the hose leading to the CCV. Once the engine is on, CCV starts opening, the moisture and other things might getting into the crankcase although the chance is low. An improved version would be adding some sort of filter there to prevent things getting into it.
I have a 2008 Mercedes 320 GL in the problem is cranks. It won’t start until I use. The ether runs fine no problem at all but as soon as I turn it off it won’t start again I had to put it ether again, replaced the high-pressure fuel pump And is still doing the same thing any recommendation I will appreciate by the way, I don’t have no codes
I just acquired a 2012 Sprinter that has 100k miles with the OM642 3.0L V6 . The CCV is marked A-642-010-17-91. It may have been changed at least once already; I don't know. So maybe an aftermarket CCV assembly. Thanks for the video. Interested in your suggestion about loosening 4 bolts on the valve cover. Did you have to do that. I watched another video where a guy was having issue and use a pry bar gently to get it going, but he did not loosen any valve cover bolts. Do you know the torque specs for the valve cover bolts? And are there torque specs for the CCV? Also, no mention of using Anti-Seize on the steel bolts into the aluminum block. The factory uses Anti-Seize on all steel bolts into the aluminum block.
this is what i need it thanks
Hi! May I know which website did you buy the parts?? TY.
Why dreaded OM642? It was build in high volumen and is inside many mercedes cars and reaches high milage before breaking so not too bad engine :-)
Just put a smaller diameter hose piece into the original pcv valve. In front of the sensor( if you are concerned it being sucked into the turbo) This reduces vacuum created by the turbo a lot. I went with 4mm hole in the smaller hose piece.
Pcv valve hose*
Where can find the part for the Oil Catch Can
Do you have a part number for the sensor or description I can look up? This is for an 08 R350. Hatch won't auto close.
Did you find the strips seperatly for the R class? I only find it with the whole plastic piece where it is attached too.
So you remove the glass panel without removing the liner?
Did you add catch can for oil? Do you have a video on it
th-cam.com/video/IoMXqaBMO6k/w-d-xo.html
Can you not vent the gasses off to air via a catch can then blank the inlet by the turbo
Great video - how did you connect the pro vent to intake air duct in front of the air filter?
This makes a lot of sense. Most cars route the PCV in front of the air filters. I had a golf which had the same type of routing directly into the intake and the intake was also very oily.
Can you link me to Lee’s instructions? I see his boat vids and looking to do this on my motorhome! Thanks for sharing, it looks fantastic
Ocal boydidgood (TH-cam search, I'm there. How does this video only have 17 views?! Lee
Mine will not power-open (I can do it by hand) but it can power-close?
I have the same oil sucking issue on a 2012 W221 S350. I am going to do what you did. Thanks
Hi I got mercedes s350 bluetec w221 2013 the problem is turbo, actuator goes up and down plug-in the lam obd scanner no faults I don’t know what’s the problem th-cam.com/video/3vSyfZAVe3Q/w-d-xo.html
Brilliant idea indeed 👍
I don’t think I asked this properly before. I would love to see the plumbing of the PCV re-routing from the catch can into the air intake feed on the passenger side. What kind of coupler did you glue / cement inside that plastic on the air feed intake to allow for the hose clamps.
Thanks for the video. You said dreaded OM642 engine. I have 3 vehicles. All with the same engine. Outside of replacing the oil cooler seals, cleaning the induction system and general maintenance I have had no issues. Please elaborate “dreaded OM642”. Thanks
Good job however, that coupling is going to collapse when it gets hot. I did the exact same thing. I fab'd up an aluminum support cage to slide into the coupling. No more deformation or collapsing..
At time 2.36 oil does not accumulate into the oil cooler but into the Intercooler ( for the air intake after the turbo before the intake manifold)
So what is you solution the Connector or the plumbing into the one air filter
Im very curious how your air filters look after driving and sucking in the fumes?
Doing what you did plus a full delete will give you a brand new car the way it should be
of course the pcv will go bad right next to the cat with all of the dpf regen heat cycles. stupid emissions system is the greatest parasite
Wow, you are such a blessing...I hope you keep us upto date on any other midifications youbmade to your wife's suv...thanks for sharing the knowledge ☝🏾
URGENT! the front wind-deviator remain up just on the right part and cause the non-closure of the sunroof, if I totally remove the wind-deviator would star working again? or there is any sensor or something else which can make things worse? Thank you very much

Hi roblaeke ! Good video on an important topic of poor design that actually ruins a nice engine ! I did all the things you did, including the Mann catch can, with the same result : Still oil at the turbo inlet and intake system. But two questions to your final solution : 1. Have you checked if the right-hand side (in driving direction) air filter is gooed-up with oil mists ? 2. What happens to the sensor on the original PCV rubber hose, going from the PCV vent to the turbo inlet ?
Swirl flap motor failed on my ml35 cdi . I see people are bypassing the motor with 4.7K resistor . Over time does it make any harm to the engine or any other part ?? This oil suction is disaster 😕
Talking to much shit, why not get straight to the point rather than tell your life story.
